b.$1,500,000
c.$750,000
d.$625,000
e.$820,000

Respuesta :

Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Budgeted production (September) = 50,000

Direct labor time for producing each sneaker = 2 hours

Direct labor wages average = $15 per hour

Direct labor budget for September:

= Budgeted production of sneaker in September × direct labor time require for each sneaker × Direct labor wages average per hour

= 50,000 × 2 hour × $15

= $1,500,000

Therefore, the direct labor cost budgeted for September is $1,500,000.
